But at this moment, Xiao Qingluo said to Qiao Qiuyun, "Sister Qiao, if you want to thank me, it would be enough to give the dress you gave to my younger sister. As for the one you said you would give me, I can buy it myself."
After saying that, Xiao Qingluo took out a four-hundred-liang silver note from his sleeve and handed it to Qiao Qiuyun: "Here are four-hundred-liang silver notes. No need to pay the change. If there's any extra, consider it as me treating the sisters in your cloth shop to tea."
Xiao Qingluo's voice was neither loud nor soft.
Xiao Ruolian, who was about to go downstairs, turned around abruptly upon hearing this, and stared at what was in Xiao Qingluo's hand with wide eyes!
Four hundred-liang silver notes from the Dagan Dynasty were handed to Qiao Qiuyun by Xiao Qingluo!
Xiao Ruolian exclaimed, "Impossible! How could you possibly come up with four hundred taels of silver?"
This moment.
Xiao Ruolian didn't care at all about distancing herself from Xiao Qingluo.
He doesn't even care about establishing his own white lotus persona!
Her exclamation made everyone around her look at her.
Xiao Qingluo also looked over and smiled slightly, "Miss Xiao, is there anything wrong with me taking out four hundred taels of silver? Could it be that Miss Xiao looks down on a little beggar like me?"
Xiao Ruolian was choked speechless by Xiao Qingluo's words!
If she agrees with Xiao Qingluo's words now, then her image as a white lotus will probably spread throughout Xuzhou City in no time!
By then, my plan to take advantage of the Sixth Prince's birthday party to hook up with other princes will probably be ruined.
!
Xiao Ruolian glared at Xiao Qingluo obscurely, then laughed and said, "Sister, you're joking. I just didn't expect that I was so wrong. I didn't expect you to come up with so much money."
At this point, Xiao Ruolian suddenly asked in surprise: "Eh? Sister, your banknotes seem a little dirty. Did you not store them properly?"
Xiao Qingluo sneered!
Is the banknote dirty?
I think you are saying that the source of my banknotes is not legitimate!
What a little green tea!
You have really mastered the art of speaking!
Sure enough, after Xiao Ruolian's "reminder", some women became suspicious and sneered.
"Miss Xiao, I don't know how many people this banknote has passed through. It doesn't matter if it's dirty. I just don't know where it came from!"
"Yes, this guy was dressed in rags, like a beggar, and he suddenly took out four hundred taels of silver. Does anyone know where he got the silver?"
"Shopkeeper Qiao, what the sisters said makes sense. You better keep your eyes open. Don't accept the banknotes and then the government officials come to your door. That would be more trouble than good!"
Xiao Ruolian sneered in her heart when she heard this!
These women's words were exactly what she wanted to say but couldn't.
Now that she had given them a little reminder, they said what she wanted to say on their behalf.
Xiao Ruolian looked at Xiao Qingluo, and began to guess in his heart that this banknote
The origin of .
Xiao Qingluo was not favored since childhood, and his mother was a peasant woman.
How could I possibly have four hundred taels of silver?
This money definitely came from an illegal source!
The most likely source of it was that Xiao Qingluo stole it from the Xiao family!
Xiao Ruolian said coldly in her heart: "The Xiao family's money is my money. If you, Xiao Qingluo, dare to steal my money, I will never let you off easily!"
Xiao Ruolian was thinking when Qiao Qiuyun frowned and glanced at her. Then, without hesitation, she took the banknote from Xiao Qingluo and handed it to the maid, saying, "Put the money away, pack up the two pieces of clothing, and give them to my sister and her maid."
Qiao Qiuyun's action surprised the women around her.
"Manager Qiao, aren't you afraid that if you accept this money, the government will come to your door?"
"Shopkeeper Qiao, this girl doesn't look like a rich person at all! The money must have come from somewhere!"
"Shopkeeper Qiao is really willing to make any kind of money. No wonder he has such a huge fortune now!"
Qiao Qiuyun swept her beautiful eyes over the other women and said calmly, "Please don't judge others by your own standards. This young lady has such medical skills and can definitely support herself. Why would she do such petty theft?"
After hearing this, all the women were speechless.
really.
Xiao Qingluo can actually treat women's menstrual pain.
This alone is enough for Xiao Qingluo to make all the women's money.
!
What needs to be done that violates the laws of the dynasty?
At this point, Qiao Qiuyun glanced at Xiao Ruolian, intentionally or not, and then said loudly: "I hope you will not be instigated by those with ulterior motives and become used as pawns without even realizing it."
After saying that, Qiao Qiuyun took the clothes handed to her by the maid and handed them to Menglan, but her eyes were fixed on Xiao Ruolian, and she said, "Miss Xiao, why don't you leave?"
Xiao Ruolian looked at the wrapped clothes in Menglan's hands and suddenly became furious!
That dress was exactly the one she had set her eyes on before, a red long dress worth more than two hundred taels!
Now, Qiao Qiuyun actually gave this dress away for free to the lowly maidservant beside Xiao Qingluo!
Why?
Qiao Qiuyun just trampled her own dignity underfoot!
For Xiao Qingluo?!
Why!
She, Xiao Qingluo, is just an unfavored beggar, a dog fed by the Xiao family out of mercy!
Why do all the good things happen to Xiao Qingluo? !
Why was she, the Xiao family's beloved daughter, being humiliated like this today?!
Xiao Ruolian clenched her fists tightly under her sleeves.
His nails dug into his flesh, his knuckles turning white.
"snort!"
Xiao Ruolian turned away!
After leaving Qiao's Cloth Shop, Xiao Ruolian looked up at the second-floor window and growled through gritted teeth, "Xiao Qingluo!"
"I am the most favored daughter of the Xiao family!"
"I am Xiao
The eldest daughter of the family!"
"I should be the one being adored by everyone and enjoying all the respect!"
"Why can such an ugly and despicable thing like you still enjoy the respect of others!"
"I, Xiao Ruolian, will definitely drive you out of the Xiao family and become the Xiao family's true eldest daughter!"
He Miao nodded heavily and said, "Miss, you can definitely do it! That Xiao Qingluo can only laugh out loud today. After the Sixth Prince's birthday banquet tomorrow, she, Xiao Qingluo, will never have the chance to be an eyesore in front of you again!"
A hint of arrogance returned to Xiao Ruolian's eyes: "Yes, you are right. Tomorrow, I will make sure that Xiao Qingluo will never be able to turn over again. I will make Xiao Qingluo get out of the Xiao family completely!"
Speaking of which!
Xiao Ruolian suddenly had an idea!
A sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth!
"He Miao, go in again and tell them that I'm hosting a banquet for them at Huaiyang Restaurant on behalf of the Xiao family!"
He Miao didn't know what Xiao Ruolian was going to do, but she still went back to the second floor of Qiao's Cloth Shop and told her that Xiao Ruolian was going to hold a banquet to entertain those women.
A group of women immediately became interested.
They are getting moldy from staying in the compound day after day. Apart from taking care of their husbands and children and shopping, they have no fun at all.
Now that they had a legitimate reason to go out for drinks and attend a party, they didn't even bother to look at their clothes and went straight downstairs to Huaiyang Restaurant!
